EDITORS COMMENTS
This color lithograph, titled "La Fayette at the tomb of Washington - Mount Vernon Va. 1845" takes us back to a significant moment in American history. The print, created by Currier and Ives, showcases the solemn scene at George Washington's tomb in Mount Vernon, Virginia. George Washington, revered as one of the Founding Fathers and the first President of the United States, rests eternally in this hallowed ground. His plantation house on the picturesque banks of the Potomac River served as his final resting place. In this image, we witness Marie Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de Lafayette paying tribute to his dear friend and comrade-in-arms. Lafayette played a crucial role during the American Revolutionary War and served on General Washington's staff. The composition exudes both classical elegance and gothic grandeur as visitors from all walks of life gather around Washington's mausoleum. This site holds immense significance not only for Americans but also for anyone who appreciates democracy and freedom. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of America's rich heritage and its enduring commitment to preserving the ideals championed by these remarkable individuals. It serves as a poignant reminder that even after centuries have passed since their time, their legacies continue to inspire generations across North America and beyond.
